The February 2022 Nintendo Direct gave us our first glance of the best Kirby of all time: Mouthful Mode Kirby, who has eaten an entire car. Obviously, this spawned a lot of memes, mockups, and all sorts of Things That Kirby Ate, but we quite enjoy the simplicity of artist Mirac's 3D model of a Kirby Switch case:
It's not even a good case. Look at it! You can't access the screen. Does it flip open, like a laptop? Is there a hidden zip? Or is the entire Kirb made of silicone? We don't care. We want it. We want Kirby to eat everything we own.
Of course, it's not real. You probably got that from the title. If not, hello! You might be the first person who reads an article before the title. How did you do that?
A similar, even less useful case mockup was posted by Reddit user "willierthanyou", which features Kirby skin all over the controls and even some bumcheeks:

Now we just have to wonder if a Switch tastes as bad as a Switch cartridge.

This case gives me anxiety, the bottom of it is completely exposed. Zipped cases all the way.
“DedeDAMN”
…aaaand just like that, you instantly know that you are about to read a Kate Gray article. 🤣
It was just a matter of time before something like this was going to happen and here we are 😅
@Fizza Agreed, but at least this looks really accurate to how Kirby would look with a Switch in mouthful mode, so you gotta give it some points for that!
@Yosher I won't fault it on that front, that's for sure.
Finally. A reason to buy a Switch Lite.
@KateGray thank you for bringing me another article with this glorious Kirby pink theme, I think I might petition Nintendo to adopt it as the official colour!
I think I would probably prefer Kirby to be swallowing the Switch lengthwise, as least that way there's less chance it'll slip out accidentally 🤔😂
@Otoemetry That’s a real lesson for life there. Always swallow lengthwise, so that it doesn’t slip out.
@nessisonett

I would pay very real money for that case.
Honey get the shovel.... Yeah kirby ate the switch again!
They should make the Switch Dock look like mouthful Kirby.
@Fizza Maybe it's too morbid to put a zipper on Kirby's mouth?
@BloodNinja Calling it now: a Kirby boss will do that in a future game where you have to try and break it off whilst avoiding their attacks so you can then suck them up.
I'm not a Kirby fan, don't like pink.... I'd consider getting this.
In the end, Kirby will eat us all..
Thats actually very creative
Its not functional, and blocks the handheld. Pass
@Fizza Ah yes, the stuff of nightmares lol
@nessisonett Kirby mouthful mode, the gif that keeps on gif'ing.
At this point we just need a Mouthful Kirby versions of everything...cases, gloves, socks, shoes...lol
The pink theme on the article is a nice touch.
Edit: wait all the Kirby related articles are pink, am I noticing this just now?
There was a better version that was also on Reddit before this one that had Kirby's fat cheeks on the back. I want that one.
Actually the switch tastes pretty good, I like it better than the 3DS but nothing matches that DS flavor, I know this is an unpopular opinion but I think that the Wii U actually tasted better than the switch, but most disagree.
You're right, it's not a good case. It's a GREAT case!
@CactusMan Just what I needed!!
I want someone to produce and sell a Kirby car cover. That would be golden!
I miss Grey Kirby!
@Bl4ckb100d all the ones @KateGray has written recently have been!
@Joeynator3000 I can't imagine the pain Kirby would be in every time you would need to move your hands wearing mouthful mode gloves
